DESCRIPTION
The Envision Engineering team helps customers solve their most interesting business challenges by rapidly developing innovative prototypes using world-class cloud and open-source technologies.
We've helped public sector customers by using image recognition to find missing persons, Artificial Intelligence to optimize rideshares, and Machine Learning to grade exam answers.
We are a team of problem-solvers and builders who work on our customer's challenges that don't have cookie-cutter solutions.
We often don't have the answers right away, and are expected to Dive Deep to figure out the best approach. The code we write provides immediate value for customers by showing how technology can solve their problems.
